High-def jams on your iPhone, iPad or Mac/PC

24-bit / 96kHz Recording

The pioneers in mobile music making now bring you the new iRig HD – the next generation of the immensely popular AmpliTube iRig interface. iRig HD is the first high-quality 24-bit/96kHz audio interface that fits in your pocket and connects directly to your Lightning, USB and 30-pin* devices – so no matter which iPhone, iPod touch, iPad or Mac you have, you’ll rock out in seconds.

Welcome to your high-def digital audio future

iRig HD features superior digital audio quality, and offers a premium 24-bit/96kHz A/D converter for a crystal clear digital signal that’s free from noise and crosstalk. Plus, its ultra-low-draw power-consumption circuitry eliminates the need for batteries – it's powered by your mobile device or computer. An onboard gain control allows you to dial in the perfect signal level for your instrument and apps, and a multicolor LED lets you know what's going on with your interface and signal.

iRig HD is compatible with the range of IK AmpliTube apps (the #1 app for guitar players) including Fender® Collection, AmpliTube Slash and AmpliTube Jimi Hendrix™, as well as any other real-time processing apps, such as Apple GarageBand, which support digital audio. Use the iRig HD anywhere you play guitar – on the go, in the studio or on your Mac at home.

Comes with 4 gear models which are unlocked in AmpliTube for iPhone/iPad (v. 3.0 required) after the first time you connect iRig HD. The models include Metal W & Metal 150 (amps), and Wharmonator & X-Flanger (stompboxes)

What's new

iRig HD – plug in and play

No matter where you are, iRig HD delivers a pure high-quality digital input signal. It features a standard 1/4" Hi Z instrument input jack and either a Lightning, 30-pin or USB cable (30-pin cable sold separately), so you can rock out with your guitar, bass or other instrument everywhere you go.

High-quality converters

When we say HD, we mean it. iRig HD comes with an ultra high-quality preamp that runs through a 24-bit A/D converter that comes standard with a 48kHz sampling rate, and can now be easily updated (via firmware download) to 96kHz. To cut through the techno babble for a second: What this means is that iRig HD is able to provide you with an extremely transparent recording quality that preserves all those special subtle nuances that cause ears to perk up and take notice.

One interface – everywhere you play

The beauty of the iRig HD is that it works everywhere you do. It also comes with a handy USB cable and is class compliant, so you can plug right in to your laptop or desktop Mac computer and keep jamming. Start a project on your iPad, finish it on your Mac with the same great tone: Brilliant.

Free gear models & software

As an iRig HD owner, you get 4 free gear models for AmpliTube for iOS. Whether you have a full version of AmpliTube, or AmpliTube FREE, plug in your iRig HD for the first time, and these four outstanding models will instantly appear in your gear collection. They are:

Metal WBased on the Randall® Warhead 300™

Metal 150Based on the Peavey® 5150™ head

WharmonatorBased on the DigiTech Whammy™ pedal

X-FlangerBased on the MXR® Flanger 117

But wait, there's more. We also give you the complete AmpliTube Metal collection for the Mac, which features 48 gear models, including amps, cabinets and stomps. You get presets ranging from vintage 80's shred to the ultra high-gain sounds of contemporary metal.

All AmpliTube for iOS versions come with a built-in recording, mixing and editing system that can be expanded to up to 8 tracks. The recording mixer gives you full track controls: mute, solo, pan, level, per-channel sends and more.

And as if that wasn’t enough, AmpliTube’s optional Studio mode lets you harness the raw potential of DAW-style timeline waveform editing. This means that you can compose, arrange, remix, edit and produce complete songs from start to finish while on the go.

And when you’re finished you can export and share your masterpieces as high-quality WAV or m4A files.

Expand

We're adding new models of gear on a regular basis, and the in-app purchase feature allows you to expand your AmpliTube app when you want to. You can start with the AmpliTube FREE app, then expand your gear collection when you want.
